Do cars in the US not have license plates on the front?
I'm not seeing any on either car in the photo.
This took place in Ohio, where the front license plate requirement was actually dropped recently in 2020.
For anyone wondering, the non-front-plate states are the "rugged 21" and are:
Alabama
Alaska
Arizona
Arkansas
Delaware
Florida
Georgia
Indiana
Kansas
Kentucky
Louisiana
Michigan
Mississippi
New Mexico
North Carolina
Ohio
Oklahoma
Pennsylvania
South Carolina
Tennessee
West Virginia
...But not regular Virginia. That's because everything is still illegal in Virginia. And luckily New Jersey drivers are also still required to have a front plate, so you can identify them coming and take evasive action.
but why drop it?
Cost-cutting, presumably
Yeah, because stamping a license plate is so so extremely expensive, compared to, you know, the rest of a friggin car.

As long as you aren't camping in the left lane with your thumb up your ass.
Depends on state.
That explains why they can't just figure out who the guy is from the car's plates even though they have a picture of the front of the car.
It's still not that simple. The guy could just claim his car was missing or his similar looking friend borrowed the car.
